Torts on the Louisiana Bar Exam
Torts is Louisiana's law of civil wrongs, when someone's conduct, or something in their custody, injures another, who pays and how much? Almost every question is a liability puzzle: name the theory (negligence, custody/strict liability, products, intentional), run its elements, then handle fault-shifting and damages.
Where it sits on the exam
- Day 2 (Wednesday), 10:30 AM to 12:30 PM.
- Tested by multi-part essay questions, and in recent years about 10 multiple-choice questions as well.
- One of 5 Code subjects. The five Code subjects count double the four non-Code subjects toward your score.
What it tests
Torts rewards clean theory-spotting: identify each viable theory of liability, prove its elements on the facts, and don't stop at the top grade, allocate comparative fault and price the damages.
